K&F Concept 75.6''/1.9m Camera Tripod, Heavy Duty DSLR Tripods with 360 Degree Ball Head Load Capacity 8kg/17.6lbs, Detachable Monopod, Cellphone Clip for Smartphone O275A5+BH-36

This K&F tripod is a very lightweight tripod. I was a bit surprised how light it was as it’s much lighter than my other tripods. This tripod is mostly made of plastic. Even the ball head is mostly made of plastic as well. Despite being made of mostly plastic, the tripod still feels sturdy. It’s not rock stable as higher end or heavier tripods but it’s feels better than those basic tripods.

You also get some accessories with the tripod. You get a Bluetooth remote, a cell phone / tablet holder, and 2 ARCA Swiss style quick release plates. The 2 plates are made of plastic as well. One of the leg can be detach and be used as a monopod as well. The Fliplock for the legs locked up nice and tight with no play. The leg angle lock has a spring to lock back in place when you adjust the leg angle which is nice.

If you’re looking to step up from the basic tripod, this could be a good choice. It’s lighter than other tripods of this design but offers the same features.

I was looking to buy a ball head for one of my tripods to use in conjunction with a shooting rest for my rifles, and then I saw this tripod with ball head that cost the same as just the ball head I was almost ready to order, so I decided to get this instead since it was like getting the tripod for free. This tripod is a decent weight for its size to use as a shooting tripod at over 3.25 pounds (52-ounces), so I wouldn’t consider this a lightweight tripod.

Pros:

- Very compact at 17-inches by around 4-inches, with a moderate weight of approximately 3.75-pounds.

- Flick Lever Lock adjustments on the legs.

- Foam lining on one of the legs for easier carrying in cold weather.

- Included zippered carrying/storage case with strap instead of a cheap storage sack with drawstrings (although it’s kind of crinkly sounding).

- Broad range of adjustability.

- 2 Quick-releases plate for quick removal or re-installation of cameras or other items, and it makes it easy to switch them out.

- Includes a Basic Smartphone Mount with both wide and narrow jaws and a Bluetooth remote.

- Built in Bubble Level at one of the leg shoulders.

- You can get very low to the ground in the lowest position: 21-inches and extends camera up to 75-inches high.

- Spring-loaded clip on the bottom of the tripod allows for low angle macro shots, or you can flip the legs so that the ball head is close to the ground.

- Has the ability to convert to a lightweight monopod.

- Conforms to the Arca Swiss standard ball-head dovetail mount, so you can replace the quick release plate with another one of any brand of the same specs if you need to.

Cons (Deducting one star for these):

- The tripod is a little wobbly, that is, the slightest vibrations do make it shake a bit when fully extended. This is because there are not stabilizing braces connecting the three legs to each other.

- Excluding the shafts, most of the tripod is made of plastic components that could cause long-term durability issues. Even the camera mounting interface is plastic.

- The feet on the tripod are not self-adjusting/leveling, which would have been preferred for uneven ground.

- The Ball head is mostly plastic except for the ball itself, so I question its long-term durability.

- I question the longevity of the spring-loaded shoulder adjustment clips that allow the legs to pivot out the 180-degrees.

The cons are relatively benign based on the fact that this is a tripod of under fifty bucks at the time of this writing. I think it is a good deal and recommend it for anyone looking for a compact light-duty tripod that is of the ball-head style.

Works well for my needs. Fairly light. Like the monopod option

Nice tripod! Solid build and does the job well. The only real improvements I’d suggest are a better handle for maneuvering the ball head and a more visible level bubble. But the fact that it converts into a monopod? That’s a game-changer. For $50, it’s definitely worth it, and it’s earned a spot in the YouTube channel gear rotation.

This tripod is a complete set. It comes in a bag with a phone/tablet mount, two Arca swiss compatible plates and a phone camera remote.

It does have metal legs but you should be aware that all the fittings(the yolk, the column lock, the ball head, the plates) are plastic which may not be a bad thing. The plastic on this actually feels pretty sturdy. Still, I would be careful not to over tighten and check it frequently for cracks.

The remote is a blue tooth remote and is pretty straight forward to connect to your phone.

The tripod plates are plastic but are actually Arca-swiss compatible (unlike some of the other tripods I have reviewed)

It is not the smallest or lightest tripod but it is sturdy and has good height. It will support phones, mirror-less, film SLR's etc.

Después de tener problemas con el trípode, el servicio al cliente me apoyó enormemente. Gracias

Utilizzato un paio di volte per fare delle riprese e devo dire che è molto stabile e facile da usare. Grazie ai suoi 192cm, testa ruotabile a 360 gradi, riesco a fare riprese da qualunque angolazione, rendendo le mie composizioni creative. Consigliato

Ce que j'ai particulièrement apprécié c'est que l'un des pieds puisse se dévisser et s'assembler au mat central pour devenir une perche de 2 m.
C'est un parfait trépied pour un réflex, il est robuste, stable, et polyvalent.
Mais à mon sens incompatible avec un smartphone.
Car un téléphone est un petit objet nomade que l'on peut avoir n'importe où, contrairement à ce trépied qui pèse son poids et reste tout de même imposant.
Il existe des solutions plus adaptées à ce cas précis.
